Wax

Industrial wax is a versatile material widely used across various industries for its unique physical and chemical properties as well as its shape. Typically derived from petroleum, plants, or synthetic processes, industrial waxes such as paraffin, polyethylene wax (PWax), and microcrystalline wax are valued for their excellent lubricity, moisture resistance, and thermal stability. They serve as critical ingredients in manufacturing processes and finished products, including coatings, adhesives, rubber, and plastics. For example, in the production of PVC, industrial waxes act as processing aids to improve flow and reduce friction. Additionally, they are used in polishes, candles, packaging, and even in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical sectors. The adaptability of industrial waxes makes them essential in enhancing performance, improving efficiency, and achieving desired qualities in diverse applications.
